Büchel's Training Ground, Art Basel Miami Beach
From the Art Newspaper's report on Art Basel Miami Beach:
Hauser & Wirth’s sprawling Christoph Büchel installation Training Ground for Training Ground for Democracy, 2007, is a scaled-down version of the aborted piece destined for MassMoCA. The ensembles includes original Florida voting booths, children’s toy hand grenades, half-eaten pizzas, Arabic propaganda films and a pile of burnt papers. It sold for $250,000 to the Flick Collection and is to be installed at the Hamburger Bahnhof museum in Berlin.
“More collectors want the really ambitious works. It isn’t necessarily about scale,” said Jeffrey Deitch
